Are you a loyal partner?

There is less loyalty in our community and in our relationships. And temptations are everywhere. However, I think there are some people loyal in any situations. Are you one of them?

Richard Dawkins said in his book The Selfish Gene I'm paraphrasing now. men cheat in order to spread the seed is wide and as far as possible women cheat in order to obtain a better gene pool. we are not animals we have a conscience and free will that makes us different, I know when I'm unhappy in a relationship I have been known to be a wing walker not letting go of one relationship before starting another that could be disloyal.

You can be whatever ... I am not judging. I will always expect the same in return

1

Very much so

Yes, I was disloyal once as a teen and felt totally rotten about it. Have never done it since, I'd rather leave than do that it just feels like the wrong thing to me.

On reading the responses it seems that either the premise for the question is faulty or only pretty loyal types answered 🙂

1

Yes! But the older I get, the harder it is to be that loyal.

Ohh, why?

@Sensiwoman7 Life happens and every time you get disappointed or back-stabbed, it takes a little longer before I can be that trusting again. At least with me it's like that.

3

Absolutely! I have been with myself all my life and plan on being with me until the end!

Haha, good point!

1

That's good!

@Sensiwoman7
Are you?

@Gatovicolo yes, if I have a partner 😉

@Gatovicolo yes, if I have a partner 😉

@Sensiwoman7
That’s reasonable.

27 years with my late wife,never had the urge to stray(probably had the chance,but followed the command " Forsaking all others" in the wedding vows). Loyalty to a fault I suppose......

When I love someone it’s absolute. Nothing will get me to cheat on my lady. I went several years without sex as I watched health issues drag my fiancée down until she finally lost her fight.

Ohh, so sorry for your lost..

@Sensiwoman7 Thank you. I hope you have a great day

What a dude xxxxx

@LolaOrlando Thank you, I’ve felt the pain from that type of betrayal. Plus I’m just not like that.

Very loyal.

Honor and integrity are the only things life cannot take away

3

Yes.
Unfortunately us loyal and faithful men are going extinct.

That's true, unfortunately..

Id say yes loyalty and integrity are conerstones of my person until resently i was in a 6 year relationship wich i ended after finding out that she was not and i stil have good friends that help me trough all of it sometimes the ones that play you are the ones closes to you but it doesent mean you don't have other loyal poeple in your life or that you should not be loyal just focus your energy on those who are and those who show you they deserve your loyalty

Surely, all loyalty is conditional.

You have to define Loyal... will I lie to you when you are out of line? No... but I will always going to check your six and watch your back and never felt left alone. I will be your rock.

I don't understand why you would say "there is less loyalty in our community and in our relationships". What are you basing that pronouncement on?

The ancient drives are very strong I myself have felt them I don't question them why I just act on them I have had extramarital Affairs in my youth but now that I am older and I'm looking for more of a friendship than a relationship.

The last time I was disloyal was about seven years ago, so I consider myself loyal, since this is necessarily a present-tense question.

Is this one of those religious morality questions about sex again?

2

Yes I am

3

I have always been a very loyal partner & friend. Often it is not appreciated or returned. Once I'm done with someone like that, I am DONE.

I cheated on a girl when I was 17 and learnt my lesson. Been cheated on a couple of times since then and learnt a lot from that too!

When in a relationship, I'm extremely loyal. I would never cheat.

4

Assuming loyal is in the sense of dedicated and trustworthy not subservient. I would say if one lacks loyalty, one could not call themselves a partner anyhow.

You're right!

1

I've always been loyal to a fault, maybe too loyal. Oh well, live and learn.

Me too.

I'm extremely loyal. When I was with my ex I was faithful for 12 years. I only date one girl at a time. Its inefficient but I can at least give that person my full concentration. I could be wrong I am new to this dating thing.
